1. I salt my grilled cheese sandwiches. A habit I picked up from an ex-boyfriend. It sounds weird but is sooo good. Because the butter and cheese just aren’t enough…
2. My views on abortion changed drastically after getting pregnant. I am a true liberal at heart and would still NEVER vote pro-life, but I definitely have a different opinion on when life “begins.”
3. I would never wear shoes if I didn’t have to. I am barefoot most of the time, and prefer that to having anything on my feet. Being on maternity leave is great because I am always in my pajamas. I have a HUGE collection of shoes that I haven’t worn in months, and it is going to take some getting used to when I have to start wearing them again.
4. When I was in kindergarten I wanted to be an archaeologist when I grew up. I used to spend hours digging around looking for “fossils” because someone told me that rocks were really dinosour eggs. This older boy at our apartment complex playground used to make fun of me about it constantly and successfully squashed my dreams. I am pretty sure he a drug addict now.
5. I AM REALLY EXCITED TO GO BACK TO WORK! I always thought that being a stay-at-home-mom would be the most fun job ever…but I am getting bored in a big way. I love my baby a lot, but I am looking forward to the day that I can pay someone else to watch her for a few hours so I can go interact with grown-ups and use my brain.
